Simplifies Your Storage

Data management made easy

  • Radically simplifies storage management, for less
  • Installs in minutes without training
  • Simple to configure and optimize
  • Easy-to-use graphical tools provide real-time visibility
  • Comprehensive self-healing


Flash Hybrid Storage Pool

Optimized storage pool

Solaris ZFS, which comes with the Sun Storage 7210, uses a virtual storage pool to seamlessly optimize access to the different media types, including SSDs, improving efficiencies and increasing application performance.

SSD and SATA drives increase performance

The Sun Storage 7210 delivers high performance and throughput, thanks to its Flash Hybrid Storage Pool, enabling you to increase business productivity at a very attractive price.

Increase application response times

Need faster application performance? The Sun Storage 7210 supports optional write-optimized SSDs, which makes it ideal for organizations that require high-volume throughput for write operations.

SSDs increase performance

SSDs dramatically increase performance while cutting power consumption compared to spinning disks. Just what you need to reduce space and energy costs and increase utilization and scalability. Plus, the Sun Storage 7210 also utilizes 7200 RPM SATA II drives for energy efficiency.


Cost-Effective

Easy on your budget

Flat or declining budgets are a fact of life in today’s IT environments. But so are growing storage demands. The Sun Storage 7210 scales up to 142 TB capacity with enterprise-class features included and no additional software licenses required. All at a competitive price.

Eco-efficient

The Sun Storage 7210 helps you lower costs by lowering energy consumption and offering higher storage density, which reduces space requirements.

No additional software licenses

Unlike other vendors, who charge license fees for protocols and data services, Sun includes features like CIFS, NFS, replication, and snapshot restore with the Sun Open Storage Manager that comes with the system. No additional licenses are required.


Reduced Risk

Solaris ZFS increases availability

Solaris ZFS, included with the Sun Storage 7210 at no added cost, combines with the availability characteristics of the Sun Storage 7000 Unified Storage System family to deliver high availability.

Data integrity features keep you up and running

Checksum protection for data and metadata as well as a self-healing mechanism to correct any potential data corruption are included in the data integrity features.
